Starbucks to City Market at O

Update 1/10/2013: Confirmed, Starbucks say they will open in the spring. The coffee shop will be 'attached' to Cambria Suites (so until the hotel is open don't go looking for your java) until then the closest Starbucks is at the Convention Center. (See Press Release at bottom of Post)

OK, a little short on detail, but permits were issued today for the promised coffee shop at City Market at O. Its reported (by Washington Business Journal) that it will be a Starbucks...see below
1400 Seventh St. NW: Build-out of tenant space at Roadside Development’s CityMarket at O for a coffee shop (from the little known Starbucks chain) in this newly constructed building. The 1,604-square-foot space will seat 50.
I have checked the CityMarket at O Facebook page, and see no mention of this yet, so it could be inaccurate.Seems that it is now confirmed...but it would certainly 'fit-the-bill". Giant Food has opened, Dolci Gelati has announced, and now add this to the retail space
